Your profile has just popped up on my LinkedIn (at least - I think it's you) as someone I may know. Am I correct in assuming you work for a major mobile co?

If so, mind if I add you to my network?

Last few years my life had been heading on a downward spiral. I was going to end up dead or in prison.

I never dreamed that I would end up setting up my own company and then going on to university this year.

I always felt I had let my family and friends down but I'm proud that I have taken my first few steps towards success.

I can still be a at times but I'm trying my hardest!

No single event type of achievement (career/marathon) etc registers in this for me...

Acting honourably and with dignity/decorum during recent divorce despite unpleasant circumstances and much provocation.

Finding myself a beautiful ex-model 10 years my junior as a permanent replacement. Ha!

Being a happy and confident person who is true to myself, and can pretty much deal with anything life throws at me with a shrug of my shoulders.

Being regarded by friends as trustworthy and honest.

I will add my lovely daughter to this list when/if I successfully raise her to be someone I can be proud of and admire, so far so good but she is only 3 (I don't see reproducing as an achievement).
